Don\'t Think I Can See Other Aircraft Online

Daft question - do you "see" multiplayer traffic online in the TCAS? If you aren't seeing it on either the TCAS or in FS, something major is not right.

Yeah I see The traffic on TCAS

Other thing you might want to try - run AI-Bridge before you fire up Flight Simulator (just for testing purposes) and see if the MP traffic appear then...

sorry what is AI-Bridge, and what is MP traffic

you have to start IVAP but not yet connect, then multiplayer session join and then connect IVAP.
I didn't say it because it was a short explanation .
But Chris go in FS START IVAP (till all lamps get green) then open multiplayer write callsign, session is automatically there only press join.
After this connect IVAP ;o)

Yeah tried this but still cannot see the IVAP session, and therefore cannot join.
what version of IVAP are you using Kendy?

OK - from the top (for my benefit as much as Chris's, I have to get this right for the IVAP Flying Guide)
[*]Start the IVAP Network Interface, wait for 4 reds.
[*]Start Flight Simulator, set up your flight.
[*]"Go flying", and once you're in the cockpit, go into the IvAp menu and Start IvAp.
[*]Go into the File menu and Multiplayer "tab" (you know what I mean, I'm sure) and Join the IvAp multiplayer session.[/list]
Is that about the size of it? Or does the "Join MP session" happen before you "Go flying"?

The problem i have with this method is that i get told the FUSIPC has duplicate copies, when i look in the modules folder there is only 1 fsuipc.dll, although other files to do with fsuipc.
ADDED LATER
OK sorted this by deleting all the other FUSIPC files, and putting in the latest FSUIPC.DLL file.
but still i have got issues with not being able to see the session.

That's good, it means IvAp has the traffic, so it's definitely an MP Session issue.

Second one first: MultiPlayer traffic (or MultiPlayer session, as above...) ;D
AIBridge is a little tool written by Jose Oliveira that writes the FSUIPC MP traffic tables back into Flight Simulator's MP traffic tables. As a short-term fix, you may just find this makes traffic appear. I used to use it many moons ago to ensure MP traffic showed up on the PMDG 737 GC TCAS (but this need got fixed in one of the recent IVAP updates...)

Hence my post above to nail down the start/join order.
I think we can be reasonably certain that your problem is with the MP session. Once we get that nailed, traffic should pop up correctly.
EHM-1627 Chris:
AI-Bridge says that there are no sessions, so this unfortunatly didn't help!!!
EHM-1627 Chris:
OK guys
someone called kenny on the IVAO Forum has solved it...http://forum.ivao.org/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=15625
he said to seach for the session manually...on 127.0.0.1
and this works, now i can see the session, i should be able to see the traffic, will test in a min, and then get back to you all. but thought i better tell you this so as you don't spend anymore time trying to work this out.
but thanks sooo much for trying to help. what you said would have worked, but i think that the settings on our router at home don't let FS look out for severs!!!
